My dad, just to hear his voice again. He'd be amazed at what I've found out about his relatives, and he'd be able to give me some more info I'm sure. He might also burst into song as he adored Italian opera, and I remember the vicar at his funeral saying he was sure there would be music in heaven for him to enjoy! nell

Being a Scot..... Can I reverse the charges please? Sorry all. Not meant to be flippant. Just have a lot of them up there and I don't want to take out a second mortage to talk to them all.

I'd phone my grandad who died the year before I was born... I think I'm a lot like him and I'd like to thank him for giving me my strength to survive and my tenacity. Becxx

I would phone my nan and tell her I miss her so much. I do actually talk to her at night and tell her things (when I am laying in bed) its a very relaxing feeling.

I'd ring my Daughter to tell her I love her and have never forgotten her.... but mainly just to hear her voice and to hear her say mum! I have heard it so many times from my other five children but as she was only a baby when she went there I never got to hear it from her :-( So even if I only got to hear her say Hello Mum! Shaz x

I'd phone my Grandparents and ask them to give me their blessing when I change my surname by deed poll to theirs in their honour. I have the blessings of their two surviving children, my Aunt & my Uncle .. and I know that Nana & Grandad will be with me at the time, holding my hand as they have done through out my life.
